  • 1.  Open Lot Space Abandoned?

    Posted 08-27-2021 01:59 PM
    Hi friends, 

    I had a tenant move into my open lot storage the last day of June, he paid for that day and the month of July with cash. We didn't receive a payment for August and started calling him but the phone number goes to someone else, not him. We have emailed and not received a response. His RV is no longer in the space. Am I allowed to move him out of my system on the assumption he is gone and rent that space to someone else even though he never gave me a move out notice or confirmation?

    If the RV is no longer in the spot and they haven't paid for August, I would assume they moved out.  Treat it just like a storage unit that you find empty without a lock. I would note the account that you found the space vacant, and the number on file is not their's and move the unit out.  

    If they come back rent them a different space.
